When adding entries to the hosts file what command do you run without
restarting the PC.

Thanks.

Hi
There are Host file editors available for free.
Example, http://www.funkytoad.com/content/view/13/31/
You can edit and save the file and that's it, you do not have to Run
anything.

Once you've changed it, you're done.  No need to restart or anything else.
